    :D:D You're learning fast PL ;) Then again, I hope he doesn't wake up once he's had enough sleep at silly o'clock again tomorrow for your sakes :o

    Ds is in bed although not showing many signs of being sleepy just yet :o

    I am feeling strangely organised though tonight, even cleaned his school shoes ready for the morning :) Its going to be a hectic week though, we're trick/treating tomorrow night, wednesday night I have weightwatchers and then our school concert, thursday ds and I are having a family photo done and friday after school we're off to my brothers for the weekend, so it will be a busy one this week. Looking forward to getting stuck in to the new months budgeting though :)

    I wish I had your devotion to ebay stuff. I look at things and assume that because I think they are rubbish then nobody will want them.

    If we all thought like that charity shops would be out of business!

    Thankyou Gilligan, I do go through phases with ebay, at the moment its a good phase :) It is just so unpredictable though :cool:

    We've been trick and treating tonight, just around a couple of neghbours and family / friends. I am quite tired tonight, first day back always takes it out of me :o

    Today has been a nsd apart from ebay postage, but thats covered by the people who bought the stuff anyway, so doesn't really count anyway :)

    Have I mentioned the guy at school that I like?? I know this seems like a recurring theme on here :o but this is a trainee guy and he's yummy :) I am on a mission to find out more about him, haven't discovered much yet other than his name and where he lives, what car he drives and that he has a dog :) But I can't stop thinking about him and each morning I can't wait to get to school to see him :o:o Will keep you all updated ...

    Spends today = £1 on a poppy, £3 on a new school tie for ds (yet again), £2 on milk and sweets.

    £4 from another BIN on ebay, only got a couple of bits left on there now, can't believe how everythings suddenly selling on there, its all been relisted several times without so much as a sniff :)

    Have been chatting with crouchy about the guy at school and he thinks I need to be braver and make it really obvious ... he says as a guy in a new school where he hardly knows anyone he's not likely to start chatting to me out of the blue, so I need to be less subtle. I did speak to the ta in his department today and asked her for info, and she is going to do some digging for me :D
